Gene Haderlie has been a part of the Monterey marine biology community for more than 60 years, serving on on the faculty at Monterey Peninsula College and later at the Naval Postgraduate School. For many years Gene Haderlie taught summer classes at Hopkins Marine Station. He was the driving force behind the classic book "Intertidal Invertebrates of California" published by Stanford University Press. A long time supporter for Hopkins, Gene established this award for students doing work on the natural history of marine invertebrates.

An internationally recognized expert on foraminifera, Earl H. Myers was the first to demonstrated alternation of generations in this group of organisms using time lapse photography. His wife, Ethel, assisted Earl with his research studies throughout the world. Ethel desired that his work be remembered in a lasting way by establishing a trust in their names as part of her will in 1984. The Trust awards grants for the enhancement of studies in the marine sciences, including conservation and science education.
